Shade adjustment and alignment
Your shade has been carefully inspected and adjusted
by the factory, but minor adjustments may be necessary
once it has been installed. The yarns in your shade are
flexible enough to permit minor adjustment horizontally
and vertically for proper alignment on your window. If
the bottom of your shade becomes uneven, pull either
side to str
etch the yar
n and align the shade.
If your shade doesn’t lie flat against the wall or window,
roll the shade tightly from the bottom and twist roll
clockwise on one side and counter
clockwise on the
other as shown. This will align the yar
ns and slats.
Should a strand of yarn slip off the edge of the shade,
r
emove the strand from top to bottom; doing so will in
no way affect the strength of the shade.
Use the notches in the headrail
for placement of remaining
brackets, if included.
Spacer
• Using the included screws,
attach the optional cord
cleat to the wall or window
frame on the side with the
draw cord, as shown.
•
Excess cor
d may be

Roman Style Valance:
• Align the valance return with the end of the headrail,
with the hook-and-loop strips at the top.
• Firmly press the valance return into place so that the
hook-and-loop strips engage.
